Beyond elegance, teak is the timber of choice because it can withstand
adverse climates and weathers beautifully. Back in the 18th century,
British craftsmen discovered from their fellow craftsmen of the east
the unique qualities and natural beauty of teak. Teak is high in oil
and rubber content, which makes it stable and naturally resistant to
rotting even when exposed to years of extreme temperature variations.
For this reason, teak has been used for marine applications for well
over a century.
